When you finish this essay‚ do you have a sense of unity and completion? She tied her conclusion both to the highlights of the body and her lead. The last thing I remember is falling asleep during a late night rerun of the Twilight Zone. So when it happened‚ it was especially eerie‚ like I had stepped into a lost episode‚ but Rod Serling was nowhere

from fluid injection at the Rocky Mountain Arsenal near Denver‚ Colorado. For decades scientists have been researching induced seismicity‚ or how human activity can cause earthquakes. Such a link gained attention in the early 1960s when hundreds of quakes were recorded in Colorado after the Army began injecting fluid into a disposal well. There are many ways human activity can trigger earthquakes. In the 1930s for example‚ the construction of Hoover Dam in Arizona unleashed a burst of seismic activity

earthquake activity in the Cascades. On March 20‚ it recorded a magnitude-4.2 earthquake deep beneath Mount St. Helens‚ inaugurating a round-the-clock watch that was to save many lives. From March 25 to March 27‚ quakes of magnitude 4.0 rocked the mountain as many as three times a day‚ and smaller quakes occurred several times every hour. At 8 a.m. PST on March 27‚ the U.S. Geological Survey issued an official Hazard Watch for Mount St. Helens; around noon‚ the first eruption of steam from the summit sent

Here GPS enables direct fault motion measurement in earthquake using one or more GPS’s three basic components‚ i.e. absolute location‚ relative movement & time transfer. The technology here uses real time GPS information to measure vital stats on a quake. The technology use is referred as‚ “Real Time Earthquake Analysis For Disaster‚(READI)”. Because of its accuracy & precision‚ the technology has played a vital role in sensing the area précised to 5mm. We here are using the GPS data automatically
